Participants engage with scientific traces of mangrove worlds to understand how shifting climates shape these dynamic coastal habitats and how climate insights can lead to engaging narrative material.
Through guided discussion and examples, the session highlights ways that climate metrics can be transformed into artistic insight, revealing new perspectives on environmental change, resilience and regenerative futures at the land–water threshold.
This public program is presented by RMIT University as part of the exhibition 'Future Sonic Ecologies" at First Site Gallery.
